00:01Wait, who are you?
00:02I'm future Chuck. He's me before my five hour energy shot.
00:07Wait, did you get it from the website? Because they have a buy more, save more deal and like 15 flavors to choose from.
00:12No, I just took this one from your stash.
00:14Damn it.
00:20Well, this is a mystery hero in this next story.
00:25Here's a dude who helped put out a fire during the fires in Los Angeles.
00:31But they still don't know who he is.
00:33He's just like a random guy that showed up to try and put someone's house fire out.
00:38And now they're trying to track him down.
00:40Here's the story.
00:42A mystery hero captured on ring camera is getting praise today from the homeowners who say he saved their house from flames.
00:50Hello, can I help you?
00:53Yeah, your house is on fire.
00:55He popped up out of nowhere, alerting them that flames were approaching their home in the Hollywood Hills.
01:00Me and a firefighter are knocking down the blaze now.
01:03You can see embers flying all around and he's not wearing any protective fire gear, only a Nike hoodie.
01:10Patio is locked. There's no way to breach the home from the outside.
01:14So we're using your garden hose to knock it down.
01:16Thank you so much.
01:17No problem. I used to be a firefighter in New York. I'm just helping out.
01:22Thanks to his quick actions, only a small section of the backyard deck burned.
01:27He came and helped. There were no firemen in the area.
01:31It happened last month at the height of the L.A. fires.
01:34But the video is only now being released. And Candace and Vincent Broccato are trying to track down the hero.
01:41If he's watching, what do you want to say to him?
01:43Find us. We would just love to honor him. It's more than just one home you save.
01:51Your house is on fire.
01:53Here.
01:54Hi.
01:55That's a cool dude.
01:56Yeah.
01:57It is a cool dude. I hate when people really try to find...
02:02Oh, they found him.
02:03Oh, good.
02:04They found him.
02:05He's not like a criminal or anything.
02:07They found him.
02:08Let's see.
02:09They...
02:10They could do...
02:11Fire already.
02:12Okay.
02:13When I saw your house, I was like, this house is the first house on the hill that could be the catalyst to the whole block going up.
02:19Exactly.
02:20Tony shot his own video that night, which shocked Vince and Candace.
02:24This house is on fire already.
02:26Oh, my God.
02:27Oh, my God.
02:28Whoa.
02:29All of a sudden, you see the orange kind of starting to flare up again.
02:34The height of it, standing from like this wall had to be like 60 feet flames.
02:38Because we have gear.
02:39But yeah, yeah.
02:40I was hiding behind this for a little of it because the embers were just hitting your pool like meteors.
02:45It was crazy.
02:46What'd they get him?
02:48I got you.
02:49Oh, no.
02:50Oh, no.
02:51They got him a bottle of booze and a sweatshirt.
02:54Oh, no.
02:55He saved their home.
02:56They got him a bottle of booze and a sweatshirt.
02:59Do they even know what kind of booze he likes?
03:02Does he even drink?
03:03What is it?
03:04What is it?
03:05If you have a son that is like a teenager, when grandma and grandpa buy them clothes.
03:15Oh, yeah.
03:16It's awful.
03:17It's the worst.
03:18What kind of sweatshirt?
03:19There's a Columbia.
03:20I didn't see the booze, too.
03:21I didn't see the booze, too.
03:22It was like the meteors.
03:23It was crazy.
03:24Your sweatshirt has to be burned.
03:27Smells like a campfire.
03:28Smells like a campfire.
03:29It's a champion.
03:30Maybe never need it.
03:31After the gifts, an impromptu reenouncement of their first meeting.
03:35Instead of me being the intercom, I'm here in prison.
03:38Who the hell are you?
03:41Hello?
03:42They reenacted the ring camera interaction.
03:46What are you doing in my neighborhood?
03:49It's hilarious.
03:50They got him a sweatshirt.
03:51It was like a sweatshirt and a bottle of booze for saving their house.
03:55Yeah.
03:56That's crazy.
03:57That dude didn't even want any credit, though.
03:58I don't know.
03:59That's what scares me.
04:00I always want to track these people down.
04:02And sometimes just like the right person's there, but maybe they've done some stuff.
04:07They don't want to be found.
04:08And they don't want to be found.
04:10Yeah, possibly.
04:12Yeah, that's one of the...
04:13We were talking about positivity earlier.
04:15When bad stuff happens, that is one thing that does give me faith in humanity.
04:18Yeah, when you see things like that.
04:19There's the selfless people that do stuff for other people.
04:22Right.
04:23Just to help.
04:24I'd be in an unknown bottle of booze in return.
04:26Yeah.
04:27I'd be like, thanks.
04:28It says champion on it.
04:30Probably got the wrong side.
04:31He says, you're a champion.
04:32You're a little thinner than I thought you were.
04:37What does that deserve?
04:39Okay.
04:40I don't know.
04:41If someone saves your house from being burnt down.
04:43If he just looked at it and walked away, they've lost everything.
04:48Yeah.
04:49They've lost everything.
04:50You're so right.
04:51Maybe they don't have a lot to give.
04:53I think they're in the Hollywood Hills.
04:54Well, that's a pretty nice looking house in Los Angeles.
04:56I think you better step up.
04:59I don't know.
05:00To me...
05:01Giving alcohol to a stranger is...
05:02It's wild.
05:03Also, it's presumptuous.
05:04Yeah, you don't know.
05:05It's presumptuous that they're allowed to drink.
05:07He's like, I'm a former alcoholic and I hate the sweatshirt.
05:09Yeah.
05:10Yeah.
05:11Is it money?
05:12Is it money?
05:13Do you give them money?
05:14What do you do?
05:15Maybe.
05:16Isn't that better?
05:17Because what else would you give them?
05:18I was going to say, is it 10,000?
05:19You'd give them something.
05:20I think you should give them a really generous gift.
05:21You saved your whole house.
05:22Honestly.
05:23Buy them a car?
05:24I don't know.
05:25What do you need?
05:26Yeah.
05:27They stopped it.
05:28Car is a lot.
05:29Yeah.
05:30These days it's even more.
05:31Maybe just 10,000.
05:32More than a TJ Maxx off brand sweatshirt.
05:34It should be worth more than that.
05:36Even like a couple grand would be cool.
05:38Yeah.
05:39It's like.
05:40Something, yeah.
05:41Better than a sweatshirt.
05:43No.
05:44No.
05:45No.
05:46No.
05:47No.
05:48No.
05:49No.
05:50No.
05:51No.
05:52No.
05:53No.
05:54No.
05:55No.
05:56No.
05:57No.
05:58No.
05:59No.
06:00No.
06:01No.
06:02No.
06:03No.
06:04No.
06:05No.
06:06No.
